Trick wishlist

[JamieHalverson]

While in a down, lure head down with a treat, then shape from there and add "head down" command. I'm gonna try it in a little bit and hopefully will have some success and post a video.

Good boy Yogi!! He's so handsome.

Ok, here's head down. I had to break it into 3 videos cause I had to get up to get more treats. It's all one session: Head down 1 - YouTube

 

[JamieHalverson]

Hears number 2, adding the command after he started consistently offering the behavior. Somewhere in there he apparently forgot how to sit...Head down 2 - YouTube

 

[JamieHalverson]

And here's number 3, working for a little longer duration. I had him sit to see if he really got it after getting up and laying back down. The roll over is, I think, a little bit of a stress reaction? Going back to something he knows and giving his brain a break. Head down 3 - YouTube

One doggie down, one more to go

What a good boy!

For head down, I taught Tali down as in lie down....and "Are you sad?" Which means put your head down too. My hand sign is one hand up, (down), then the same hand up again (kind of down down). It's very sweet.

My dogs can hold down the couch in tandem fairly well. It translates to the bed, the floor etc. pretty easily. :lol:

So we are a bit rusty. But it kind of cracks me up when he starts combining tricks or just throwing things out there to get a treat, lol. Like "you said sing a song? how about sit pretty AND sing a song, how ya like me now!?Tricks - YouTube

Omg.. Sittin pretty and singing a song. Too cute!

Lol, I know, he gets kind of worked up when we do tricks... It's like his head is about to explode and he just starts trying everything at once.

Hanks a great demo dog. A natural even, so there a trick right there. Not to many dogs I know can break a double pane glass window with their face and suffer minimal injuries. lol My clickers are taking forever to get here. Checked tracking and it says estimated delivery between Dec 3-21. They must be from china... Karen Pryor clicker 5 pack off amazon. Saw mixed reviews but w/e as long as they click if/when they get here. Amazon.com : Karen Pryor i-Click Clicker 5 Pack : KPCT : Pet Training Clickers : Pet Supplies

I love this timing of this thread. I was just telling my myself that I want to expand Zeek's obedience skills (not really tricks). I would like to teach him to heel left and heel right and for a "trick" we'll work on Touch. Thank Hector for the inspiration.

You're welcome and great ideas! I started this thread and haven't done anything lol. I don't have the motivation right now. I feel blah!

 

[EverythingEnglishMastiff]

It's all about motivation! If you aren't motivated, your pups won't be very motivated either. They can detect sincerity.

I need to teach back-up while heeling and crawl. We need back-up for rally, and crawl for fitness

 

[EverythingEnglishMastiff]

I taught backup when Hank and Roxy were trying to cheat on out of the kitchen.
